Wife came home parked in garage 1.5 - 2.5 hours later opened garage door, garage filled with smoke, found Honda Odyssey had self ignited and self extinguished itself due to lack of oxygen. Incident area at rear cargo light possibly either rear cargo light or rear hatch door only electrical items in that area that I am aware of - just a guess - fire department called to scene to witness note and provide a report. Had a window been cracked most likely my house would have burned down. This was a very scary incident that deserves the highest level of follow up. I work in the risk management / loss control area professionally and this has certainly scared me. Anything I can do to help I am willing to do so.

Pulling onto freeway and dash lights flashed then motor quit completely. Coasted to stop on shoulder with very little brake power left. Vehicle would not even turn on - complete vehicle failure. Had it towed once again to dealer said a faulty or shorted ground wire. Have not picked up yet so will determine if fixed. This is the second major failure with this vehicle. Honda dealer nor corporate customer service shows any concern or interest in our situation. My wife is very afraid to drive or depend on this car.
